Finding beauty in the every day | Calgary lifestyle photographer

Lifestyle photography. One of my most loved, most favorite of all times cherished ways of getting photos. I love watching my kids. I love photographing them doing their favorite things. Looking through pictures of them seeing them truly happy and enjoying what they were doing makes me smile. I love the simple things in life. And my photos of my children reflect that. I have wanted to delve into this type of photography for so long.
When this family contacted me I was completely over the moon. We were both so excited for this session, it was truly incredible. The images I got from this session are full of emotion. All the beauty that can be found in every day moments is inspiring. And amazing. I am truly grateful to have been able to shoot this session.

Because there are moments we as parents always hold dear. Always want to treasure.

The amazing giggle your child has when you whisper in their ear…..

How they love to play hide and seek looking through windows at you…..

The pure joy they experience while you dance around the living room with them while listening to their favorite song….

Sometimes we forget how much work even the simple things took to learn….
like crawling in a dress

or just how rewarding that cup of water was once they got to it

Things like first steps that we want to remember forever

little diaper tooshies

arms that want nothing more than to be picked up

There are family moments we want treasured forever

moments that make us smile

moments that will too soon pass by

the moments where to our kids we are everything and they are overjoyed to play with us

the smiles

the snuggles

the joy

the absolute joy our children bring us

THIS is why lifestlye photography means so much to me. This is why everyone should consider a little lifestyle in their lives. And this is how I love to shoot.

Thank you for letting me be a part of your day and to share such special moments.

18 months ago I had a wonderful session with a very amazing family. You can see little miss L’s photos on this page . We had a very tricky newborn session the first go round, so we turned one session into two and got some great shots of her!!
Then I did a more lifestyle approached session (they won one of my contests for a reality rocks session)for the whole family, those shots are over here. That was also an awesome session full of giggles and laughs.

And now… they are introducing the newest member of their family… little Mr.E!! He is entirely too cute, and was much more into getting photos done than his sister was!! Such a wonderful family, I am truly lucky to have many clients turn into such wonderful friends.

Thanks so much for bringing the whole family over for some pictures, and thank you for the birth announcement I just got! Mom has some crazy design talent!

How awesome is this family’s attire! Love it

She loves me now

I can’t even describe how much I love this…..

And just one more of the proud parents…. love these images.

April Fools. The day for pranks. Practical jokes.

Well…. there were no pranks here! Ro lost his third tooth (finally)!!!! Thankfully the tooth fairy took it as serious as he did and stopped by our house last night!!!

Hope you had a great April Fool’s Day!

a smashing success | cake smash photographer

Oh my word! That is all I have to say for this session. This little girl was SUCH a cutie! She was just the sweetest thing… and she really got into her cake smash It made for the most fun in an afternoon a girl could have

Thanks so much for spending some time with me, it was so funny watching your little princess get thoroughly covered in cake! I absolutely adore these sessions…. 1 year olds are just so amazing and fun to be around!

Seriously cute!!!

Her mom brought all this awesome stuff for her session! We had so much fun outfitting her up!

AND then…… it was cake smash time!! I have so many favorites, it was incredibly hard choosing a few to blog! These sessions are just the greatest.

At first she was not sure what she was supposed to do lol. She was looking at us like ‘ummmm ok… what now?’!

Then she decided ‘ok I’ll just touch it, are you happy?’.

Which brought on another look of ‘seriously what am I supposed to be doing here?’ while mom and I were cracking up.

And then it was ON!

Heehee look at her face now

And a brief glimpse of what else went on….

Love these sessions!!! Thanks so much for bringing her by!

Way back in Feb (yes I AM that far behind in my blogging!) one of my friends and clients brought over her growing family (she’s pregnant again!!) to take their 2 year old’s pics! As usual it was the most fun time I have taken this little guy’s pics quite a few times, and love getting together with the whole family You can see his cake smash !

It was much harder getting him into the photos than when he was one and just sat where we put him But as usual we prevailed, and we got some awesome images to go together with the great memories our sessions leave us with.

Thanks so much for coming by again…. can’t wait for all this year has to bring for your family!

Blowing kisses…. so cute!

And…. haha we got you! Smiles and all

We took some cute ones of his sister too!

Also managed to get some great ones with a guitar! It was so cute watching him try to play with Daddy.

And then…. a sweet family shot! The perfect session

project 12 post #1 | Calgary photographer

kathy — Tue, 31 Jan 2012 16:08:59 +0000

This year I decided to jump in a project with a few other awesome photographers. The goal? Shooting one photo a month based off a word for ME. It’s something fun, something inspiring. I love seeing everyone’s interpretations of the same word. It is really neat to see how one word means so many different things to everyone.
Our first word was fresh.

Nothing says fresh to me like a beautiful sunrise. Every day we are given the opportunity to start fresh. We start out with a clean slate for the day the moment we wake up. And if we are lucky, we wake up to proof of that right out our front door. What a beautiful start to a day.

Now check out Heather’s take on fresh…. it’s pretty cute!
